About the Presentation

As more people use smartphones and tablets to watch videos and consume content, our mobile networks are becoming overloaded. This can lead to slower speeds and poor user experience. One solution is Direct-to-Mobile (D2M) broadcasting, which sends live or popular content to many users at once, just like TV, rather than overloading the network with individual streams.
 
In countries like India, where both population density and limited spectrum create challenges, D2M can help improve how content is delivered in both cities and rural areas. This talk will explore a D2M solution built using ATSC 3.0, a new broadcasting standard designed for mobile and pedestrian use. The speaker will also share findings from a recent proof-of-concept trial in Bangalore, India.
